Hugo Hamilton
Adapted by the author from his 2003 memoir of the same name
Ireland in the 1950s.
Set in 1950s Ireland, this is the story of a young boy trapped in a language war, struggling with what it means to be speckled, “half and half...Irish on top and German below.”
Caught between his fiercely nationalistic father and his warm-hearted German mother, Hanni must free himself from his parents’ secrets before he can find a place where he belongs.
A new stage version of the best-selling memoir of the same name.
